| Equipment
Now, any musician knows,
equipment means everything. Equipment is a big part of this
religion. Your instrument shouldn't just be an item to you, it
should feel like a part of you. It should feel as natural to
play as 'Breakout' or for those who aren't good at Breakout,
breathing.
Now, onto the point of this page.
We all have our equipment preference, this page gives a list of
guitar brands (I'll need help with other instruments, I know
little on drums) and what their strong points are. This is just
to help you all dream of owning a great instrument and to aid
your research:

Gibson. PRS guitars are useful for both clean and dirty.
